We consider the second best constant in the Hardy-Sobolev inequality on a Riemannian manifold. More precisely, we are interested with the existence of extremal functions for this inequality. This problem was tackled by Djadli-Druet [5] for…

In this paper we study the optimization problem $$\mu^\star(\Omega):=\inf_{u\in \semi}\frac{\into |\n u|^2 \dx}{\into V u^2 \dx}$$ in a suitable functional space $\semi$. Here, $V$ is the multi-singular potential given by $$V:=\sum_{1\leq…

Let $(M,g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$, and $k\geq 1$ an integer such that $n>2k$. We show that there exists $B_0>0$ such that for all $u \in H^{k}(M)$, \[\|u\|_{L^{2^\sharp}(M)}^2 \leq K_0^2 \int_M |\Delta_g^{k/2}…
In this paper, we consider the following problem involving fractional Laplacian operator: \begin{equation}\label{eq:0.1} (-\Delta)^{\alpha} u= |u|^{2^*_\alpha-2-\varepsilon}u + \lambda u\,\, {\rm in}\,\, \Omega,\quad u=0 \,\, {\rm on}\, \,…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a smooth bounded domain having zero in its interior $0 \in \Omega.$ We fix $0 < \alpha \le 2$ and $0 \le s <\alpha.$ We investigate a sufficient condition for the existence of a positive solution for the…
We present the best constant and the existence of extremal functions for an Improved Hardy-Sobolev inequality. We prove that, under a proper transformation, this inequality is equivalent to the Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^N$. We also…
The paper studies the existence of minimizers for Rayleigh quotients $\mu_{\Omega}=\inf\frac{\int_\Omega|\nabla u|^2}{\int_\Omega V{|u|^2}} $, where $\Omega$ is a domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, and $V$ is a nonzero nonnegative function that may…

We consider the weighted parabolic problem of the type \begin{equation*} \begin{split} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} u_t-\mathrm{div}(\omega_2(x)|\nabla u|^{p-2} \nabla u )= \lambda \omega_1(x) |u|^{p-2}u,& x\in\Omega, u(x,0)=f(x),& x\in\Omega,…
The purpose of this paper is twofold. We first prove a weighted Sobolev inequality and part of a weighted Morrey's inequality, where the weights are a power of the mean curvature of the level sets of the function appearing in the…

This paper is devoted to improvements of Sobolev and Onofri inequalities. The additional terms involve the dual counterparts, i.e. Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev type inequalities. The Onofri inequality is achieved as a limit case of Sobolev type…
